Looking at those lugnuts pics, I think I'm gonna buy myself a new set, but I am open to suggestions. I was thinking gold colored lugs to go with my black car and gunmetal 18s, what do y'all think of that? Or just stick with black? Any particular brand I should look at or stay away from? I seen some moteki sets on eBay for ~$60

I think gold would probably be a really nice accent, or black I guess.

my car will never see the track, its built to look good and go fast if i want it to.
Built not bought QFT! Why I have so much respect for Chris's car. It's all about the blood, sweat, and heartache lol

Nope, just grew tired of the SS, as surprising as that seems. The GF and I will be living together, and we only have one car, therefore its much easier and cheaper to run this then the SS. Its a fun little car to drive, and looks sharp. I don't regret it at all.

When I start my career once I finish school, and we're bringing in more income, I'll get a weekend toy, but for now this has to be it.

Hey guys. Thanks. Change of plans tho. Had the wife take it for a drive. She thought it was ok, but wants it loaded. I had a LT RS, looks like I may be getting the LTZ RS. I'll let people know about the springs and sway bars as soon as I can. Thanks

I had the LT for 3 days. Its no SS, but thats why i'm getting it. Its a lot of fun to drive! Decided to stick with the LT. Didn't want to pay the extra for leather, 9 speakers and a sunroof. Not worth it. Glad to hear you like it!
